Question

I am about to install 3.73 gears in my 95 HPP and I want to install a shift kit at the same time. I was on www.summitracing.com and the only kit I can find does specifiacally fit my vehicle... Any suggestions?

Carey, not sure I could suggest anything about the shift kit,
but.... you are proving my theory:

Super People, drive Crown Vics!

If I manually shift the gears at WOT, I can snatch the crap out of second and almost third. If it's in drive at WOT, it won't snatch second but shift instanly, no delay. If I am driving normal, the shift firmness is barely noticable, but again, it shifts instantly. I am VERY happy with this install. Now I am debating whether or not to install 3.73 gears with gas prices predicted to hit $2.00 a gallon.
